breakfast sandwich at Evans
Bruce S.

Conveniently located next to a coffee hut at the Sawdust festival. Evans gourmet has a yummy menu. And since it was early, we decided to share a breakfast Sandwich with avocado eggs and bacon, that was absolutely delicious. Amazing array of artists to stroll thru & enjoy!!

A very delicious BBQ Grilled Chicken Sandwich
Guy B.

My son and I couldn't have been happier with our BBQ Chicken Sandwich while were visiting Evan's Bistro at the Sawdust Festival. To very large pieces of chicken, perfectly grilled, with muenster cheese - and just enough jalapenos (not too many for those who don't like things too spicy), with mayo, BBQ sauce, and yummy pickles on a fresh and tasty focaccia roll. Great combination of tastes and it was more filling than I suspected it would be. (Good thing we didn't add fries to the order, though we were tempted.) Evan has come up with a great combination of entrees and I would love to visit the Festival more just to try more of them out. I've included a photo of the menu board to give you time to think. By the way, Evan and her staff were super friendly. This is a great addition to Sawdust's food court.

Really?   12 dollars?   And it made me sick.

See all

Worst food I have had in a long time. The worst part was the attitude and customer service. NEVER AGAIN.

Jeff the Silent Chef

(65 reviews)

We hired Jeff the Silent Chef for our party, and the entire experience was exceptional from start…read moreto finish. He was a pleasure to work with, responsive and made everything as easy as possible for us. Jeff does far more than simply prepare wonderful food. He takes the time to understand the style, timing, and atmosphere of the event and personalizes the flow of the evening around it. Everything felt beautifully coordinated and completely seamless. The food was outstanding and elegantly presented, and his team -- including the bartender and three servers -- was equally impressive. They were polished, gracious, attentive, and incredibly efficient. Service was always there exactly when needed. We were able to spend time with our guests and truly enjoy our own party because every detail was being handled so professionally behind the scenes. Our guests raved about both the food and the service, and at the end of the night, Jeff and his team left the kitchen absolutely spotless. Jeff is talented, thoughtful, organized, and created a wonderful experience for us and our guests. We could not have been happier and would hire Jeff the Silent Chef again without hesitation. An absolutely wonderful experience. .

He met with us at our home well before the party to help plan everything out. We didn't have to worry about a thing. I would use him again in a second. EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!

We all fawn over the gorgeous crudite platters. It's a feast for your eyes for sure. Beyond the amazing food, the service is top notch. Great communication from Kristen, and super thoughtful after-service follow through. We order a lot of lunches at my office, and Plates and Bowls is a frequent request. Love the song title names of their lunch spreads, too.

We were treated to this at work…read more CHIA SEED PUDDING CUP: -- great texture and creamy -- loaded with black chia seeds -- could use more fresh chopped or dried fruit for added interest -- not too sweet as presented so fruit would not hurt RATING = A MINI CHOCOLATE PASTRY (croissant-like): -- not enough chocolate for bite balance on each nibble -- bread texture decent -- not flaky; better in an air fryer RATING = B MINI CROISSANTS: -- soft vs. firm texture -- not flaky -- better after the air fryer -- possibly too health consciously prepared to be "golden" type RATING = A- FRESH FRUIT & DRIED FRUIT: -- red grapes, blueberries, apple, mango, baby banana, watermelon, strawberries -- not as fresh as could be with watermelon and strawberries but strawberries aren't always good and sweet even when color is right on and this is a poor year for watermelon (probably due to early heat spell in February) so not necessarily a "them" issue RATING = A OATMEAL CUP: -- milky and creamy with nice oat texture -- light sweetness -- really good -- added some blueberries to improve the interest level RATING = A

I cannot recommend Bites & Bashes enough! This was a catered event for donors and special guests…read more It was a pleasure coordinating with Katie and Mariah. Quick responses and seamless customer service. Ordered for 100 guests and we were impressed by the amount of food received; there was more than enough to feed our additional last-minute guests we hadn't included in the original headcount. Everything was so light & colorful and tasted just as delicious as it looked. Appreciated the beautiful floral touches to the platters. We got the seasonal fruit platter, assorted viennoiseries, chia pudding, yogurt parfaits and coffee/tea. Per Katie's recommendation we added cookies--which were a huge hit with guests (and staff)! The menu was curated for dairy free/GF/vegan options. The delivery with Ramon went smoothly: right on time, clear communication via text and help with the set up. The whole Bites & Bashes team did such a professional job. You won't regret working with this family-owned business!

From the menu options to working directly with Mariah, who patiently answered my hundred questions and was so accommodating with all the little tweaks I made to our order, to the delivery and presentation, everything turned out so wonderfully. And, most importantly, our guests LOVED the food! We went with the Mexican menu, along with some appetizers and the Gochujang tofu. My only regret is that I didn't order more of the tofu! We had a few vegetarians in attendance, but EVERYONE was eating it. My husband and I served ourselves last, so by the time we made it to the buffet, there was barely any left. Honestly, though, I think that says everything about how much our guests loved the food! It just gives us an excuse to host another big party so we can have Bites and Bashes cater again. I truly can't recommend them enough. Everyone we worked with was incredibly kind, helpful, and professional, and the entire experience was wonderful from beginning to end. JUST WOW! Thank you, Bites and Bashes, for helping make our wedding day so delicious and special! 5 stars isn't enough of a high rating.
